A CITIZEN of Cleveland found a swallows
nest in his barn and in it two young swal-
lows. Upon taking one bird in his hand he
saw that one of its legs was very thoroughly
bandaged with horse-hair. He carefully re-
moved the hairs one by one, and then saw
that the nestling's leg was broken. He Wis
tied the nest the next day, and the leg was
again bandaged as before. The bird surgeon
was not again interfered with, and in about
two weeks it was found that the hairs were
being removed, only few each day. and
finally, when all were taken off the union
of the bone was evidently perfect, as the
bird was able to fly off with its mates.

from the abbey. She at once resumed her
carriage and returned to Buckingham Pal
ace, this time taking the route she went
after her coronation fifty years ago.
A reception and banquet was given at the
palace at night, the guests being limited to
members of royal families and diplomats.
The police reports show that fifty persons
were admitted to Charing Cross hospital
during the day. They had been spectators
of the pageant, and the majority of them
had tainted in consequence of the great
crush. One man was killed by horse.
Several patients were also admitted to
Westminster hospital who were suffering
from prostration caused by the heat, crowd
ing and excitement.
At the children's fete in honor of the
Queens jubilee, at Hyde Park three thou
sand little ones were present. The Prince
and the Princess OF Wales and their sons
and daughters, accompanied by a number
of the royal guests, visited the park during
the fete.
When it was announced that the Queen
was coming the children massed themselves
along both sides of the road over which her
majesty's carriage passed and moved with
it toward the stand, the assembled bands
playing the national anthem, which the
children all sang with grand effect. The
Queen reached and assembled the platform
while the music was proceeding. At the
conclusion she presented memorial cup to
the little girl who had been selected to rep
resent all the children assembled. When
the Queen departed the whole assemblage
sung " Rule Britannia"

to be experienced as forester. He
started last Thursday to the field of his
labors.
At State Forestry station No. 2, ten
acres will be planted to timber this
spring, this being the amount of land in
that tract which is already under cultiva-
ton. The work of breaking an addi-
tional forty acres at that station is pro-

NEWSPAPER BOOMS,

The World believes that no boom
which has not newspaper support at its
back can amount to much. This we have
said repeatedly in private conversation
with our neighbors. The Atchison CHAM
;piou has on this subject some thoughts
which we here present to our friends:
With all these booms there should be
a newspaper boom. This is not a sug-
gestion to the newspapers, but the peo-
pie. The Champion in short time will
enlarge and endeavor to keep at the head
OF the procession. But the people of
Atchison have much to learn about the
uses and effects Of newspapers. The art
of advertising may be said to be in its
childhood. The people, having the boom
on hand, do not know how to tell the
world of it. They seem to think that
the newspapers should do that at their
own expense. They do not realize that
outsiders do not confne themselves to
reading editorials and locals. They look
at advertising columns, to satisfy them
selves as to the amount of business done.
They certainly do not credit the town
with branches of business they do not
see advertised. People are not expected
to hear horn that is not blown.

A "Reminiscences Of the War.

In conversation with r. r. friend
the other day he related the following:
In 1864 l was running an engine on the
Z. S. Military r. R. in Va. Our run was
from Alexandria to Washington, and re-
turning to Alexandria and out to Fair
fax, running to Washington and back to
Alexandria for days work. Our time in
Washington gave us two hours before
leaving for the front. One morning
was sitting on the engine reading the
morning Chronicle, when noticed man
and boy looking around the engine. The
gentleman asked if was the man that
run the engine. I answered in the affirm
ative, when he asked if there was any OBJ
lection to getting up in the cab? I an
swered no sir. He helped the boy up
and began explaining the different parts
of the engine to him. I was surprised to
see stranger of this kind, so conversant
with the valves and levers the boy,
like all of his age, was very inquisitive,
and finally said: "Pa, let us make her gop
The gentleman turned to me and asked
if I would not move the engine a short
distance to please the boy-I did so, and
the boy seemed wild with JOY. I finally
told the gentleman our run was to Fair
fax, and if he would trust the boy in my
care, [ would return the boy to Washing
ton in the evening. The boy plead with
his father to be allowed to go-he would
be oh so careful, and obey all the engi-
neer said. Finally the gentleman con-
sented, and it being near leaving time, he
left the engine; we soon pulled out, the
boy sitting on the front of my seat with
his hand on the throttle lever. He mag.
ined that he was running the engine, and
in his boyish talk, told me his name was
Tad Lincoln, that his father was the
President, and there was never such a
father as he had. thought that I recog-
nized the man then, not that had ever
seen him before, but from his pictures in
the different papers at the time. To be
brief, we returned to Washington with
out accident, and man with horse and
buggy met us at the depot, to take the
boy home. I saw him many times after
this, but that was the first and only time
| saw our martyred President Ellis
Headlight.
This true story has been told to the
editor of this paper. The author is Q
citizen OF the town of Ellis, and promi-
nent G. A. r. man. We would mention
his name if we did not know that he
would entirely prefer for us not to do 80.

BIG BONANZA
In the Way of immigration.

We are informed by Mr.. J. B. Hogan,
the agent of the firm at Wa-Keeney, that
Close Bros. & Co. have sold the Swedish
colonization Society, of Chicago, ILL.,,
46,O80 acres of land lying in the south
and southeast parts of this county. The
most of this land lies in townships 13
and IA, ranges 81 and %. Enough lies in
townships ID and IA, range %. to make
up what that in ranges 81 and % lacks of
making the whole number of acres.
Nearly all the members of this coloni-
zation society are residents of Illinois.
It is expected that portion of them, at
least, will come to their new possessions
this spring. The settlements are not to
be made at random over the whole tract
of land. The new corners will begin
either at the east or west side of the
tract, and settle the first township before
settlement will be made in any other por-
ton.
Whether this society will buy their
outftting goods at Wa-Keeney is a
question. The president of the company
is said to favor this course; and, in our
judgment, our merchants in different
lines have it in their power to decide this
matter. It is subject of no little i'm
portance financially. The colony being q
Trego county institution, home pride
naturally suggests it's members should be
offered bargains by home merchants,
which business policy will not permit to
be ignored.

EARTHLY AMBITION.

Why can not-why zr1U nof-men real
ize more forcibly than they generally do
the hollow mockery of all earthly glory?
1t is the exception, and not the rule, that
public men who are energetic and capable
are in any sense paid for the ISLANDERS to
which they are subjected. We are led
to these reflections by noting the death,
only few days apart, Of the mother and
the wife of Senator Geo. Barker, of Doug
lass county, in this state. He was sum-
moned from the bedside Of his dying
mother in Wisconsin to come home to
Lawrence to see his wife die. Mr. Bar
ker is very capable senator, and he was
elected mayor of his city last month by q
majority phenomenally large. The Law
renee foHrmai says:
: How small and contemplate seem his
triumphs, his victories and his successes,
and they, too, have been many and such
as man covets earnestly -standing by the
side of the graves of fond mother and
q devoted, affectionate wife. That the
tenderest sympathies of an entire COM
munitygo out unstiutedly and unreserved-
ly to Mr.. Barker and the three daughters
who grieve for their mothers death, and
whose grief is second only to that of the
father, who Hourns the dead wife, the
borrowing ones need not be assured.
Mrs. Barker had many generous, noble
and endearing qualities that make the
commupity and large circle of intimate
friends bold her in the most tender and
affectiOpate regard.

NORMAL INSTITUTE.
Trego County to have one, as
Usual,
And When It Will Begin and End

AND WA0n IL III 00S1u 8uO Emo.
Through the kindness of County Su-
perintendent Baker, we are able an
nounce that the Trego County Normal
Institute for 1887 will last four weeks,
as usual, beginning on August 8.
Mr.. L. Tomlin, superintendent of the
city schools, Parsons, Kansas, has been
employed as conductor, and Prof. Schuy-
Ter Opp, of the Wa-Keeney schools, as
instructor.
There can be no doubt that this insti-
tute will be conducted ably. This, in
conne< ton with the accessibility of Wa
Keeney to the people of this region,
should insure for this institute at least
one hundred pupils. This early notice of
the time when the institute will be held
will afford to many the chance to prepare
for attending it, who, otherwise, might
find it difficult to be present.

STRONGER WALLS.

Under this head, Prof. Walters has a
valuable article in the Agricultural Col
lege IndHsfrialssf. We merely note some
of its more salient features. He says the
fronts of the opera houses in Junction
City and Clay Center went down into
the cellars before the buildings were
completed In both cases the blame
was laid on the architects who had
drawn the plans as much as on the con.
tractors. In Wa-Keeney blunder of
this nature was made in the recent con-
struction of brick building. It cost
more afterwards to have the job done
properly than the proper construction
would have cost in the first place.
Continuing, Prof. Walters says: 1.-THE
main sources of weakness in modern
buildings are these: Too great a height
compared with the general form of the
building; insufficient anchorage; INSULT
Gent crush strength of the brick used;
thin walls; too many concealed chimney
fues and too many concealed passages
for hot air, steam, water and gas pipes
through or within walls; insufficient care
in building arches: and insufficient
foundations"
The World regards fimsy building as
one of the greatest faults of our Western
civilization, and we do not know that
that Of the East averages to be much
better. It would seem that no one could
contemplate for minute the matter of
building a house for himself without
reaching the conclusion that permanency
is of the first Importance. In what other
way than by building durably can a
genuine charm be impaired to American
home life? The residence which is built
to last through dozen generations will
be pretty sure to hold all these, and, in
all probability, they will be lineal
descendants of the builders. Poorly con-
structed houses, besides being uncom-
Portable for occupancy, are in danger of
being carried away by storms which
would not move stronger ones, to say
nothing Of their greater susceptibility
to the influence of earthquake shocks.
Limited means are not, as rule, barriers
to strong architecture. Frail architect
ure is oftener than otherwise the result
of Indifference.
